Dustfall could see them just a few inches submerged in the black water, echoing back from the night sky. His eyes were wide and dilated, so he could see the fish just as easily as he could see his own paw in the day time! In fact, their scales reflected the color of the moon, and glowed a light silver everytime they swam past his shadow. Dustfall had been sitting like this for the past half an hour or so.. Lucky he had so much patience for the fish to come back after he approached. Only the light inhale and exhale. It was lightning his decision, as he launced into the water, claws unsheated and thrust all his might into his claws. Both were a catch. He pulled a paw out, and the fish slid back into the water, floating lifelessly on the water. His other paw still there in the dark swirling water, now free of fish for they'd scuttled away.
He slipped his other out of the water, and shook his paw to rid of the dead fish dangling by it's side on his elongegated claws. He dug a small hole for this one, buried it, and dipped his muzzle into the water to grab the floating silver fish. Finally, a catch worth his patience and time! He'd come back to retrieve his other catch later.
